POWER SAVE
The power save feature lets the radio conserve battery power by
turning off power to the receiver section and periodically turning
it on to check for a transmission. Use the Main Menu to set the
power save option (see “Using the HTX-200’s Menus” on Page
16). With
PS and the current status ( on or oFF ) displayed, press
or to turn this feature on or off.
TIME-OUT TIMER
When you communicate using repeaters, keep your transmis-
sions as brief as possible. Most repeaters have built-in timers that
limit single transmissions to 3 minutes or less. You can set the
transceiver to stop transmitting and sound a beep if you exceed
a set time limit with a single transmission.
Use the Main Menu (see “Using the HTX-200’s Menus” on Page
16) to set a value for the time-out timer. With
tot and the current
setting displayed, press or to choose a value from 0 to 990
seconds.
